When Shen Yao walked quickly back to the small garden, there were a bunch of people standing in the small garden. Xie Zhe, Shen Sheng, Shen Wei, Shen Xi, Shen Zhuo, even Zhong Shaoqing were there, as well as Qingming, Qingmu... a lot of people.
Seeing that Shen Yao came back safe and sound, Huan'er hurriedly ran forward.
"Miss, where have you been~~~" Huan'er's eyes were red.
When Shen Yao saw so many people, he knew that his disappearance had frightened everyone. She didn't want to mention Xiao Cheng, lest it cause greater worry, so she smiled softly.
"I was bored waiting alone, so I went out for a walk. Unexpectedly, I got lost while walking. I met a few maids before I found my way back. It made everyone worried."
Shen Wei looked at Shen Yao with scrutiny in his eyes. Xie Zhe stepped forward and stood in front of Shen Yao, blocking Shen Wei's gaze.
Shen Wei couldn't help but laugh angrily, and was about to say something. Shen Sheng came over and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go to the poetry festival with my eldest brother. Someone will ask me to compose poems later, but I can't do that."
Shen Sheng pulled Shen Wei and Shen Xi left.
Shen Zhuo's eyes turned to Shen Yao and Xie Zhe twice. Although she wanted to stay and ask what was going on, she held back in the end. So, she took Zhong Shaoqing and left.
As for Qingming, Qingmu has long disappeared. Huan'er also pulled Zhuqing and retreated far away.
After a while, only Shen Yao and Xie Zhe were left in the small garden.
"King Yi, is he causing trouble for you?" Xie Zhe said softly.
Shen Yao instantly opened her eyes wide and looked at Xie Zhe. How did he guess it was Xiao Cheng?
"Don't be afraid, I will protect you." Xie Zhe's voice was still very soft, but very firm.
Shen Yao looked at Xie Che's shoulders and back, as thin and lean as ever, and as straight as ever. She suddenly felt at ease in her heart, and the uneasiness along the way seemed to be insignificant at this moment.
"How did you guess it was him?" Shen Yao asked curiously, not hiding anything.
Xie Zhe glanced at Shen Yao, pursed his lips, and did not answer. Since he met Shen Yao, he had met Xiao Cheng many times. How could he not understand the way Xiao Cheng looked at Shen Yao?
"Aren't you afraid that I will really run away with him?" Shen Yao suddenly wanted to tease him and joked with a smile.
"Not afraid."
Xie Zhe picked up the hand warmer and put it into Shen Yao's hand, his ears turning red.
Although Shen Zhuo left the small garden, he was absent-minded along the way.
"Since you are so worried, why don't you stay with your eldest sister?" Zhong Shaoqing said.
Shen Zhuo glanced at Zhong Shaoqing and said, "Sister, my brother-in-law is with me. Why should I cause trouble?"
Zhong Shaoqing was silent for a while and asked, "Wouldn't it be better to have one more person with you?"
Shen Zhuo laughed and joked: "Brother Xiao Xiantong, have you never gotten along with a girl like Xinyue?"
Zhong Shaoqing became even more silent.
Shen Zhuo looked at Zhong Shaoqing's embarrassed face and laughed with joy.
"Is that person Zhong Shaoqing?" Xiao Yi said lightly.
Under the plum blossom tree far away from Shen Zhuo and others, stood Xiao Yi and several dragon and tiger guards.
"Back to my lord, that's right."
Zhao Liujin suddenly felt that he seemed to have done something wrong again?
Xiao Yi's eyes passed over Zhong Shaoqing, his eyes darkened, and his appearance was indeed first-rate.
Although Xiao Yi is known as the most beautiful man in Tiansheng, and when it comes to handsomeness, there are few who can match him, but his handsomeness is too cold and hard, and it is sharp, like an unsheathed sword, with a strong evil aura. There have always been many women who have spied on him, but the one who really dared to flirt with him was Shen Zhuo.
Zhong Shaoqing is different. He is handsome and beautiful, with natural affinity. His clear eyebrows and gentle face make people fall in love with him at a glance. As soon as he entered Meiyuan today, countless women passed by him.
"Miss, it's almost time." Ying'er reminded Shen Zhuo in a low voice.
Shen Zhuo suddenly remembered that there was something important to do today, and she had to lead a few noble people to Yuquan Pavilion before the deadline.
Zhong Shaoqing cannot get involved in this matter. Shen Zhuo was about to say goodbye to Zhong Shaoqing when he suddenly heard Ying'er's slightly trembling voice.
"Seventh, His Highness Seventh..."
Ever since Shen Zhuo attacked Xiao Yi twice, Ying'er felt guilty when she saw Xiao Yi, fearing that this murderous god would cause trouble for the young lady.
When Shen Zhuo heard the sound, he turned around and saw Xiao Yi walking from a distance. It's definitely too late to avoid it.
Shen Zhuo couldn't help but frown, why could he meet him wherever he went? It turns out that I can meet him so frequently without rushing around to look for him? Shen Zhuo was slightly worried. She was afraid that Xiao Yiqi would misunderstand, and she was even more afraid that she would not be able to explain clearly in the future.
"I have met His Highness Seventh Prince." Shen Zhuo lowered his head and bowed politely.
"I have met His Highness Seventh Prince." Zhong Shaoqing also bowed his hands.
Xiao Yi's eyes swept across the two of them, feeling cold.
"No courtesy." Xiao Yi raised his hand and said in a calm voice.
Zhong Shaoqing felt an inexplicable coldness and couldn't help but glance at Xiao Yi, but saw that the other person's expression was indifferent, calm and calm, and there was nothing wrong with him.
"What are you two doing here?" Xiao Yi suddenly asked.
Shen Zhuo glanced at Xiao Yi and thought his words were strange.
What to do here? This is a plum forest, and the trees are full of plum blossoms in full bloom. Today is a plum appreciation poem party. What else can you do in the plum forest? Of course, it’s flower appreciation!
"My daughter and Brother Zhong are here to enjoy the flowers." Shen Zhuo thought for a moment and replied.
Shen Zhuo deliberately said the word "Brother Zhong" in a very intimate tone. She wanted to reduce Xiao Yi's misunderstanding. Today, she really didn't meet him on purpose.
But Shen Zhuo didn't know that this encounter was intentional by Xiao Yi.
The three words "Brother Zhong" were like a handful of sparks falling on the haystack. They "soared" and ignited a vigorous dark fire in Xiao Yi's heart. Xiao Yi felt the heat rushing straight to his forehead, making his brain buzz. He moved his fingers and pressed the sword on his waist.
Suddenly, a small voice sounded in his head, which was able to hold Xiao Yi's mind back.
"If you want to kill someone again, Jiaojiao will ignore you..."
Xiao Yi stared deeply at Zhong Shaoqing. Zhong Shaoqing's muscles instantly tightened and he involuntarily entered a state of alert.
Zhong Shaoqing glanced at Xiao Yi again. The other person still had a calm expression, but there was a sharp murderous look in his eyes.
Zhong Shaoqing couldn't help but be surprised, why did he offend His Highness the Seventh?
Lu Yun, who was following Xiao Yi, moved to the side. He felt that he should stand farther away to avoid being hurt.
"It's better to meet by chance than to invite each other. Since we are both appreciating flowers, let's go together." Xiao Yi suppressed his anger and said calmly.
This is, he's not leaving?
"But I still have an appointment with someone, so I won't accompany Your Highness." With that said, Shen Zhuo pulled Zhong Shaoqing and wanted to leave.
Xiao Yi's eyes fell on Shen Zhuo's hand. Shen Zhuo's heart suddenly tightened and he involuntarily let go of Zhong Shaoqing's sleeve.
Xiao Yi's expression softened slightly and he said, "But you made an appointment with Miss Zhang Er?"
Shen Zhuo was shocked, how could he know this? !
